Antique Yoruba Jewelry
This necklace and earring drops are handmade brass and bead artifacts that you can wear. String the brass hand made beads
with the tapered pendant and an earring in the center. Or just wear the necklace as is.
It will fit over your head. There are 96 dotted brass beads, all 8mm. The handwork is really impressive.
The 1-3/4" long pendant is also handmade with interesting twisted wire lines applied. Some slight damage, it is old.
These pieces are historical and one of a kind. 3-piece set of Yoruba artifacts, $125.00.
Sterling Vintage Handmade Earring Wardrobe
Three pair o fhand made sterling earrings. All by Native American silversmiths.
The tiny squares are delicately inlaid with shell, coral, and turquoise. The larger oval
"concho" drops are signed "BL". This is a tremendous value! 3 pr vintage sterling earrings, $24.99.
Jewelry from Antiquity
I believe this elaborate piece was attached to the burka (Muslim woman's tentdress). I like the idea that it is now a wonderful design to convert into a necklace to wear with a low neckline. It has sturdy hooks on each end and in the center and would easily convert to a necklace. Chimes with soft bell like sounds when you move. It is in perfect condition. Tribal necklace, $155.00
One of a Kind Brooch 50% OFF!
 |
| Outstanding Ornate Amethyst Brooch This one-of-a-kind brooch has everything. Transparent amethyst crystal, opaque turquoise pieces, every shape including round, pear, baguette, marquise, square, set into prong settings and bezel settings, with granulation, and an off-center pinback so it will lie properly when worn. The mounting is a rich burnished gold. Two full inches in diameter, and about a half inch in height. The large centerpiece, 15mm, sits higher than the rest giving this piece a fascinating 3-dimensional look. Unsigned, reminiscent of runway jewelry from House of Chanel. Amethyst brooch, SOLD. |
Lovely Sterling Rose Necklace
This hand-cast and forged sterling necklace was created from beautifully detailed rose motifs, 3-dimensional,
about a half inch square and a quarter-inch high, linked together with stamped sterling floral motifs.
Each rose was carefully built up in 3 layers of tiny sterling elements positioned just so to make
the rose.
There are 14 roses on the necklace which is 16" long. You could easily lengthen the necklace somewhat
by attaching rings to the end in back. The clasp is the original spring ring, very secure.
This necklace is in MINT condition, labeled sterling. It has a wonderful patina. It's not
heavy, but it is substantial. The maker used the right gauge silver for this piece.
Probably about 40 years old.
Sterling rose necklace, OLD PRICE (PRE-SILVER RUNUP) $125.00 NEW PRICE $69.99.
Very Old Sterling Stirrup Earrings
Here is a great little vintage pair of earrings that I found at a Cowboy Show in Wyoming. They are
sterling and were most likely made a long time ago in Mexico. The rowels do spin around! The detailing is excellent.
For pierced ears. About 1.5" long. The wild rose design at the top is a strong indicator of Mexican origin. They
have a lovely dark patina. Stirrup earrings, $40.00.
Gorgeous Bracelet with Crystals
Here is a mint condition piece that I believe is vintage Haskell but there is no signature.
There are 20 strands of shiny dark gray Charlottes (type of faceted glass
bead) each side of a large rhinestone ball and rondels in the center. The ends of the charlottes are
held by rhinestone caps. Verdura created a similar piece in seed pearls and diamonds, priceless.
Spring ring clasp. 7.5" long but suitable for a smaller wrist size.
Charlotte bracelet, $90.00.
Stunning Ruby Bracelet 60% OFF!
This bracelet is a rare one indeed. Huge 20mm rosy "Ruby" faceted stones set in alternating square & diagonal fashion. The setting is goldtone, with a beautiful crown gallery bezel for each stone. The prongs are shaped decoratively as well. One of a kind! For a small wrist, this bracelet is 6.5" long. Mint condition. Photo reduced. ruby bracelet, OLD PRICE $99.00 NEW PRICE $35.00.
Old Pawn Ring
This is a very well made cast sterling ring that was pawned and left. The turquoise stone is a lovely blue color. You can easily see the handmade quality. The maker signed it but that has rubbed off. I would estimate the age of this to be at least 40 years old. Size 7-1/2. This ring has some history! I purchased it years ago in Gallup NM. Sterling pawn ring, $45.00.
Dynamic Topaz Set
 |
| The image above shows a dramatic topaz brooch with the curving arabesque pave shapes so specific to high-end designer creations by Weiss, Eisenberg, or Kramer. The brooch is almost 3.5" long and 2.5" wide and rises almost one full inch from the pin back! There are 3 different tonalities of topaz as well as the aurora borealis pave stones in the curved elements. The earrings are clips and are left & right facing. All stones are original and the 3 pieces are in MINT condition. These are not signed--they were probably part of a set in which the necklace and bracelet were signed, unfortunately we do not have those. Goldtone mountings. Topaz brooch and clips, $99.00. |
Regal Amethyst for your Wrist 55% OFF!
The high quality of the stones and settings of this delicate bracelet make it look as good as the
real thing. The amethyst crystals are quite large, and the goldtone setting is in mint condition.

Pink Ice Cubic Zirconia Bracelet
 |
| Wow! This bracelet sparkles and flashes. It's "pink ice" cubic zirconia faceted triangle stones prong set in 18karat vermeil (there is a 925 stamp meaning it's sterling under the gold). The photo does NOT show how beautiful this piece really is. The pink color is perfect and it fits like a dream because it's so flexible. Secure double-step jewelers' clasp. Length 7.5". You'll get so much pleasure from wearing this bracelet. Pink CZ bracelet, $125.00. |

1.25" long. Note the mountings are jet as well. WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR? Price is almost ridiculous.
Jet drop earclips, BOTH PAIR $19.99.
Choice Weiss Pin
Here is a mint condition Weiss pin that belongs on the shoulder of that sexy gown you plan to wear to your
next fancy party. Miss America 2002 has one like it! Only I bet hers is not a vintage piece.
This one looks like a tic tac toe board filled with O's. The center crystals are chatons,
a special type of cut that really sparkles--hand set for sure. No replacements, everything original. Signed
Weiss. Similar to a Kramer pin valued at $200. Measures 1-3/4" square. Secure safety catch. Ignore any discoloration
you see in the image since the pin is brilliant white with no off color.
Weiss tictactoe pin, $75.00.
Elegant Choker
Here is a mint condition charming brilliant choker with unusual triangle shape drops, faceted and
glowing like a rainbow! Tiny, delicate, and so flattering on a pretty neck. This will complete any
dressy outfit you own. It's just over a quarter of an inch high but makes a huge impact. Length 17"
adjustable to much smaller. Signed B. David.
David Crystal choker, $99.00.
Tailored Sterling with Vermeil BIG DISCOUNT
This is a beautiful and unusual sterling and vermeil creation that is flexible as silk. Tiny squares of
sterling, gold, and pink gold line up in the center between borders of sterling herringbone and
edgings of tiny granules. Truly I have never seen pink gold used over sterling like this, but it is gorgeous and an immediate
indication that this piece is from Europe.
7.5" long, about a half inch wide. Light as a feather. Secure push in clasp with
latch. Signed 925 Italy Milor. Tailored sterling bracelet, OLD PRICE $75.00 NEW PRICE $39.99.
Jade Bracelet--2 Looks in One!
 |
| This bracelet with its oval jade cabochons set in rich goldtone mounts can be worn with the jade or with the gold side showing. The stones feel cool and soothing on the skin if you turn the gold side to the outside. The settings are covered with tiny gold dots (granules) that give lots of texture and eye appeal. The size of each oval is 12mm x 10mm, and about 9mm high. Secure push-in clasp "disappears" when closed. Intact safety chain. The design is reminiscent of the stem of an Oriental lily plant. It is signed but I could not read the mark. (Swobora?) Exactly 7" long but because of the height of the links, recommended for a smaller wrist. Jade 2-sided bracelet, excellent condition, $139.00 REDUCED! $110.00 A STEAL. |
Sterling Turquoise Pendant or Pin
Here is a vintage sterling pin or pendant made in Mexico with a symbolic face in the center, surrounded with turquoise
inlay in the mountain/river motif. 2" in diameter. An older piece from Jalisco. Stamped with makers mark & 925 on the back.
Jalisco pin, $25.00.
